Focusing on effective methods and strategies for diabetes prevention in primary healthcare settings globally, this study constructs a comprehensive clinical prevention framework tailored for community health institutions. The framework encompasses continuous prevention services across the entire diabetes cycle, targeting all population segments—including healthy individuals, those with prediabetes, early-stage diabetes, and individuals in clinical or rehabilitation phases—to establish a systematic five-level prevention system. Through comprehensive and systematic implementation of preventive activities at all levels, this approach aims to achieve universal, systematic, and sustainable diabetes prevention and control, thereby offering insights for integrated diabetes management.

This report evaluates the preliminary outcomes of a "six-in-one" integrated cough and asthma center developed under a dual-contract physician model at the Changfeng Community Health Service Center in Putuo District, Shanghai. By combining the efforts of family doctors and medical specialists, the center integrated six core functions-clinical treatment, prevention, nursing, rehabilitation, pharmacy, and nutrition-into a seamless management system covering screening, diagnosis, therapy, and follow-up. Supported by specialist guidance and teaching clinics, the model significantly enhanced comprehensive respiratory disease management capabilities within the community setting. The initiative not only improved patient health outcomes but also strengthened multidisciplinary collaboration and resource efficiency, offering a replicable example for improving chronic disease management in primary care through integrated and coordinated service delivery.

Since 2017, Changfeng Community Health Service Center in Putuo District, Shanghai, has innovatively integrated the "Dual-Contracting" program by combining integrated general-specialist outpatient services with teaching clinics. This integration has progressively evolved into a comprehensive general practitioner (GP) training model. This model cultivates competencies encompassing: core service delivery, specialized disease diagnosis and treatment, complex case management, chronic disease management within specialties, teaching and mentoring skills, and capacities for self-reflection and continuous learning. It effectively bridges the training objectives and needs for GPs across both pre-service and in-service stages. Against the backdrop of senior medical experts being deployed to primary care settings, this model not only systematically enhances the professional competencies of community GPs but also optimizes medical resource utilization and elevates the overall quality of healthcare services.

Objective: To explore the results of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) among convalescent elderly population, so as to provide the basis for strengthening the health management service level for convalescent elderly population. Methods: A total of 200 elderly people who convalesced at Hangzhou Wuyunshan Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The basic information, physical condition, psychological status, functional status, and social environment of the elderly were investigated using the CGA protocol. The basic characteristics of the elderly, physical conditions such as medication adherence, pain, malnutrition and frailty, psychological conditions such as cognitive function, anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms, functional conditions such as fall risk and social support level and social environment assessment results were analyzed. Results: Among the 200 elderly individuals, 58.00% were male, 44.50% were aged 70 to <80 years, 58.00% had an education level of high school or above, 55.00% were unmarried, 61.50% were childless, and 60.50% had basic medical insurance for employees. In terms of physical condition, 59.00% had comorbid chronic diseases, 40.50% used multiple medications, and the incidences of poor medication adherence, pain, malnutrition, and frailty were 22.50%, 10.00%, 54.00%, and 36.00%, respectively. Regarding psychological status, the incidences of impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms were 57.00%, 89.50%, and 91.00%, respectively. In terms of functional status and social environment, 90.00% had a risk of falling, and 31.00% had a high level of social support. Univariable analysis showed that elderly individuals aged ≥80 years and those with an education level of primary school or below had higher incidences of poor medication adherence during convalescence; elderly individuals with poor medication adherence had a higher incidence of pain; and elderly individuals with impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms had higher incidences of malnutrition (all P<0.05). Conclusions The physical condition and psychological status of convalescent elderly individuals are relatively poor, with a high risk of falling and insufficient levels of social support. Poor medication adherence is associated with advanced age and lower education levels, while malnutrition is associated with impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms. Comprehensive health management for convalescent elderly population should be strengthened, and personalized health management services should be provided to improve their quality of life and sense of well-being.

BACKGROUND: Spicy food consumption has been reported to be inversely associated with mortality from multiple diseases. However, the effect of spicy food intake on the incidence of vascular diseases in the Chinese population remains unclear. This study was conducted to explore this association. METHODS: This study was performed using the large-scale China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) prospective cohort of 486,335 participants. The primary outcomes were vascular disease, ischemic heart disease (IHD), major coronary events (MCEs), cerebrovascular disease, stroke, and non-stroke cerebrovascular disease. A Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to assess the association between spicy food consumption and incident vascular diseases. Subgroup analysis was also performed to evaluate the heterogeneity of the association between spicy food consumption and the risk of vascular disease stratified by several basic characteristics. In addition, the joint effects of spicy food consumption and the healthy lifestyle score on the risk of vascular disease were also evaluated, and sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the reliability of the association results. RESULTS: During a median follow-up time of 12.1 years, a total of 136,125 patients with vascular disease, 46,689 patients with IHD, 10,097 patients with MCEs, 80,114 patients with cerebrovascular disease, 56,726 patients with stroke, and 40,098 patients with non-stroke cerebrovascular disease were identified. Participants who consumed spicy food 1-2 days/week (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.95, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = [0.93, 0.97], P <0.001), 3-5 days/week (HR = 0.96, 95% CI = [0.94, 0.99], P = 0.003), and 6-7 days/week (HR = 0.97, 95% CI = [0.95, 0.99], P = 0.002) had a significantly lower risk of vascular disease than those who consumed spicy food less than once a week ( Ptrend <0.001), especially in those who were younger and living in rural areas. Notably, the disease-based subgroup analysis indicated that the inverse associations remained in IHD ( Ptrend = 0.011) and MCEs ( Ptrend = 0.002) risk. Intriguingly, there was an interaction effect between spicy food consumption and the healthy lifestyle score on the risk of IHD ( Pinteraction = 0.037). CONCLUSIONS Our findings support an inverse association between spicy food consumption and vascular disease in the Chinese population, which may provide additional dietary guidance for the prevention of vascular diseases.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of clobazam in the additional treatment of refractory epilepsy in children， and provide reference for clinically safe and rational drug use. METHODS The literatures about additional clobazam treatment for refractory epilepsy in children were searched from PubMed， The Cochrane Library， Embase， CNKI， VIP and Wanfang database during the inception to November 2023. After literature screening and data extraction， the quality of included literature was evaluated according to quality evaluation tool for methodological evaluation indicators of non-randomized controlled trial， and then meta-analysis of single-group rate and sensitivity analysis were performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS Finally， 18 one-arm studies were included， with a total of 1 424 children. The results showed that compared with before additional treatment， the proportion of patients with seizures-free （proportion of patients with seizure reduction of 100%） was 24%[95%CI （0.18，0.32）， P＜0.000 01] after conversion； the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ≥75% was 32%[95%CI（0.25，0.40）， P＜0.000 1] after conversion； the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ≥50% was 53%[95%CI（0.44，0.61），P＜0.000 01]； the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ＜50% or no change was 35%[95%CI（0.24，0.49），P＝0.04] after conversion； the proportion of patients with seizure increase was 9%[95%CI（0.05，0.18），P＜0.000 01] after conversion. The proportion of patients with adverse reactions was 31%[95%CI（0.23，0.40），P＜0.000 1] after conversion； the proportion of patients with discontinuation due to adverse reactions was 10%[95%CI（0.07， 0.15）， P＜0.000 01] after conversion. The common adverse drug reactions were drowsiness， fatigue and behavior change， etc. The results of the sensitivity analysis showed that the study was robust. CONCLUSIONS Clobazam is an effective additional therapy for refractory epilepsy in children， but its adverse effects should be vigilant.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of different doses of zinc in the treatment of diarrhea in children， and to provide a reference for clinical safe and rational drug use. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase database， randomized controlled trials about zinc （zinc group） versus placebo or conventional treatment （control group） in the treatment of diarrhea in children were collected from the inception to October 2022. Then， the quality of the included literature was evaluated by the Cochrane Handbook 6.0， and meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed by RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS Finally， 25 RCTs were included， with a total of 8 618 children. The results of meta-analysis showed that in terms of duration of diarrhea， in zinc ＜20 mg group， the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD＝ －0.39， 95%CI（－0.71， －0.08）， P＝0.01]， but in subgroups of ＜6 months old， there was no significant difference between the two groups [SMD＝0.01， 95%CI（－0.10， 0.11）， P＝0.88]. In zinc 20 mg group， the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD＝－0.52， 95%CI（－0.80， －0.23）， P＝0.000 3]. In zinc ＞20 mg group， the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD＝－0.83， 95%CI（－1.39， －0.27）， P＝0.004]. In zinc ＞10 mg （age ≤12 months） or zinc ＞ 20 mg （age ＞12 months） group （short for “constant dose group”）， the zinc group was significantly shorter than the control group [SMD＝－0.16， 95%CI（－0.27， －0.06）， P＝ 0.003]. In the aspect of diarrhea rate after 7 days of treatment，there was no significant difference in the diarrhea rate after 7 E-mail：lihuiying@etyy.cn days of treatment between the zinc group and the control group： in zinc ＜20 mg group[OR＝1.28，95%CI （0.96，1.70），P＝0.09]， in zinc 20 mg group [OR＝0.40， 95%CI （0.15，1.01），P＝ 0.05]， in constant dose group [OR＝0.64， 95%CI （0.28， 1.44）， P＝0.28]. In terms of vomiting rate， in zinc ＜20 mg group， the vomiting rate of zinc group was significantly higher than that of the control group [OR＝2.13， 95%CI （1.68， 2.70）， P＜0.001]； in constant dose group， vomiting rate of zinc group was significantly higher than that of the control group [OR＝1.84， 95%CI （1.44， 2.34）， P＜0.001]. CONCLUSIONS Zinc can significantly shorten the duration of diarrhea in children（6 months and above）， but low doses can increase the risk of vomiting， which should be taken attention in clinical.
